Enhanced activity and stability of α-amylase immobilized on alumina

TLDR
In this article, α-amylase was applied to alumina via adsorption, and the results showed that the enzyme was getting adsorbed only on the external surface of the support, which may be due to interparticle diffusional mass transfer restrictions.

Catalytic activity and denaturation of enzymes in water/organic cosolvent mixtures. Alpha-chymotrypsin and laccase in mixed water/alcohol, water/glycol and water/formamide solvents.

TL;DR: Fluorescence studies indicate that the inactivation results from reversible conformational changes (denaturation) of the enzymes, and a quantitative criterion is suggested for the selection of organic cosolvents to be used for enzymatic reactions in homogeneous water/organic solvent media.
